Tenebrae is the Latin word for "shadows" or "darkness". The service of Tenebrae to be held on Good Friday (18th April) at St. Michael’s Church makes use of light and dark and music to reflect on Jesus' journey to the cross up to the point of his crucifixion. A series of readings from the Gospel are interspersed with reflective music. We will mostly be using Taizé music. There are 10 candles which are lit at the start of the service and one is extinguished after each reading. The service begins at 8pm, which will be dusk. The service will last about an hour so that by the end of the service, as the sunsets and the candles are extinguished, we leave in darkness.
